LibriVox recording of Free Air, by Sinclair Lewis.
Read by Hollis Hanover.
This road trip novel is set in the early twentieth century and follows the experiences of an aristocratic New Englander and her father as they travel by automobile from Minneapolis to Seattle. She is wooed and won by a noble but simple commoner she meets along the way. Lewis is at his usual wryly humorous self, poking fun at the upper class and treating the common people only slightly better. Summary by Hollis Hanover.

Fascinating tale of an early cross country motoring adventure a century ago AND a heart warming love story besides. Very well read. I don't know what the 1/7/2010 reviewer is complaining about. Maybe the audio quality was fixed after he heard it. Five stars. Highly recommend.

It just goes to show that there is no such thing as bad publicity--I was browsing librivox titles and saw this one with a low rating, checked it out to find out for myself, and totally disagree with the earlier review. Every ear is different!

I really wanted to listen to this one but the audio quality was really bad. The narrator sounded like he would be pretty good but the audio was so garbled I could not hear it.
